Why we use your data
We process personal data where necessary to:

Affiliate links and third parties
When you click “Visit site” on an operator listing, you leave our website. That casino or its partners may set their own cookies and collect data under their privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party sites.
We use service providers (for example hosting and analytics) who process data on our instructions under data-processing agreements where required.
International transfers
Our hosting and analytics providers may process data outside the UK. Where this happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as UK International Data Transfer Agreements or adequacy regulations.
How long we keep data
Server logs are retained for a limited period for security, then deleted or anonymised. Emails are kept only as long as needed to handle your request and meet legal record-keeping requirements.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict or object to processing, and to data portability where applicable. You may withdraw cookie consent at any time via your browser or our cookie controls.
You can lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. We encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve your concern.

Our website is intended for adults aged 18 and over only. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the revised policy.
